Where did Mabel go? (COMPLETED)
« on: Thursday 15 October 09 03:59 UTC (UK) »

Mabel Ellen Voss was born June Qtr 1899 in Stafford.  Parents were Arthur and Gertrude.
Mabel is my grandmothers cousin and was witness to her wedding. 
I have been unable to find any more details on Mabel like - marriage, children or death.
Did she stay in Stafford?
Any help would be great.

Hi Suzy,

Was the marriage you mention before 1928?

I can see this possible marriage:
Mabel E Voss - Frederick E Kemp
Sep 1928 Stafford 6b 61

Marriage at Stafford, Weslyan Methodist Chapel, Chapel Street according to the Staffordshire BMD site

Thank you very much.  Crumbs I must be going blind, I had looked, but may be not that far ahead.

Chelmsford is in Essex - other side of the country. She's a good fit for your Mabel, but only the cert will tell you.  A death cert from 1993 should show her maiden name (assuming that the person informing the registrar knew what it was).

Have you checked FreeBMD for any Kemp children with mother's maiden name Voss?

No have not checked any children at the moment.  I would think this is her, the only Mabel Voss in Stafford at that time, she was still single in 1919, at the time of my grandmothers wedding, so you could say she was a late bloomer.
Thanks for the area, was uncertain as I live in NZ
